The Internal Revenue Code provides for a Tax Deferred Exchange through Section 1031, which typically requires the services of a Qualified Intermediary. Crawford Exchange Services is a Qualified Intermediary for1031 Tax Deferred Like-Kind Exchanges.

A Qualified Intermediary must be an independent person or company unrelated to your real estate agent, attorney, CPA or investment advisor, who has not rendered the taxpayer (i.e. exchanger) any professional service within at least two (2) years of the date of the first phase closing of an exchange … except that a Qualified Intermediary may provide their services as a QI to the taxpayer/exchanger as often as needed with no time limits.

An intermediary converts the sale of one investment property and acquisition of another investment property into a Tax Deferred transaction that conforms to IRC 1031 guidelines.

Wealth building with real estate is serious business. One should try their best to take advantage of every opportunity to save time, postpone or eliminate taxes and make money. After all, it is your future and your well being that we are talking about.

Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, offers investors one of the last great opportunities to build wealth and save taxes. It may take a little effort and planning, but isn't this opportunity worth trying if it will save all your equity and three to five years of time!

While our dependability, reasonable fees and courteous services are reason enough, we offer something else that most others do not. We've been where you are and understand what you are going through!

So, while it is important to have the forms and guide you through the exchange process, we feel that it is equally important to have been where you are, i.e. on your side of the table, and know your concerns.

We are also owners and investors who own property and have exchanged many properties, and will be pleased to share our experience with you.
